Here's another band I'm sometimes surprised doesn't get more attention. Joy Electric is the music of Ronnie Martin (brother of Jason Martin from Starflyer 59), and it's straight up synth-pop to the max. Maybe some of it is a little too poppy for people, and maybe some people get discouraged when they see it is on Christian label Tooth & Nail, but the more I hear of his work the more I enjoy it. His most recent EP is called Montgolfier and the Romantic Balloons. It includes a new version of one of my favourite songs from his last album, The Ministry of Archers, remixed by "The Duke" of Freezepop fame.
